SCOTT Scale 935: The High-End Fast Aluminum Hardtail

The SCOTT Scale 935 is the hardtail mountain bike designed to offer the perfect balance between lightness, durability, and race performance. Forget standard aluminum; the Scale 935 uses one of the most advanced SCOTT alloys, ensuring an exceptionally low weight and stiffness that translates into immediate power transfer with every pedal stroke.

This bike is the ideal choice for the Cross-Country (XC) enthusiast and for those looking for a sturdy and responsive ride, ready for long outings and amateur competitions.

Strengths and Benefits

1. Lightweight and Stiff Aluminum Frame

The heart of the 935 is its high-quality hydroformed aluminum frame. This frame not only better withstands trail stresses but is engineered with the aggressive geometry and responsiveness typical of the Scale series. It guarantees excellent stiffness, essential when you need to sprint or tackle climbs out of the saddle.

2. Reliable Fork with Remote Lockout

Equipped with a quality suspension fork (often a FOX or RockShox model with 100 mm travel), the 935 offers excellent shock absorption. The SCOTT RideLoc Remote system lets you control the suspension lockout instantly and directly from the handlebar, a vital feature in XC to switch from a technical descent to a fast climb without losing time or energy.

3. Components Chosen for Durability and Efficiency

The Scale 935 features a proven and reliable component package:

• Versatile Drivetrain: Depending on the specific setup, you’ll have a Shimano XT/Deore or SRAM NX system (often 1x or 2x), ensuring precise shifting and a full range of gears to conquer any slope.

• Secure Braking: Shimano hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent power and modulation, enhancing your safety at speed and in wet conditions.

• 29-Inch Wheels: The large wheels ensure excellent rolling efficiency and the ability to overcome obstacles with ease.
